I'm not familiar with that brand, is it that much better then the shock that comes with the V4 base?

The main reason I think (I really would rather not spend the extra $6000 for an S) I would want the S over the Base is for the electronic suspension.

I will mostly (90%) ride it on the road, but perhaps if the non electronic version of the suspension is setup for road conditions it will be compliant enough? I am eagerly waiting for Road reviews on the base V4...

These are still prototypes they built for an Italian race team, but the production ones should be available shortly. Pricing should be same or close to the 1199/1299 shocks, which are $1450 for the basic version and the you can add upgrades for hydraulic preload adjuster, etc. Performance of the Mupo stuff in the past has been comparable to Íhlins, so I expect this to be the same. Mupo is not a small company, they're fairly prominent in Italy, just not many of us who are dealers for them in the U.S.

Evotech in full production. Just got this in the mail today. Tail tidy and radiator guards. Still waiting for the bike... Tempted to install all my parts on a bench and just sit on that and make "vroom vroom" noises...

Nitrouz, have you installed the tail tidy and radiator guards yet? Be sure to take photos and let us know what you think!

Yes the tail tidy is installed. Not the rad guards yet as it fits inside the fairing so have to take off practically everything to install it. Will install it when my full akrapovic exhaust arrives. Save on labour.

Are you satisfied with the visibility of the tail light after installing the Evotech Tail Tidy kit? I messaged them for a photo of it installed and wasn't convinced regarding the clearance.

From what I can see, it does cover the bottom of the taillights slightly when it's at eye level. Unfortunately I never rode behind another v4 with evotech tail tidy to see how it actually looks from the road. My riding buddies never mentioned anything odd when they were behind me. So, sorry I can't give you a solid answer.

Looks like the CRC Race fairings final modifications are complete and will start shipping in about a week. No belly pan available for stock exhaust. They are still waiting on Race Exhaust from Ducati to mock up the race belly pan.
